In this Photoshop tutorial, we'll learn how to create a popular "punch through image" effect, often seen in sports and movie advertising (and weekly store flyers announcing their "incredible knock out prices!"), as if a person or object has punched a hole right through the page or image. There's quite a few steps involved in the tutorial, but as usual, they're all very simple.

As we make our way through it, we'll cover some interesting techniques like converting layer styles to actual layers so we can apply filters to them, moving drop shadows around just by dragging them, and using layer groups to move multiple layers at once!

We'll be using Photoshop CS5 here but any recent version of Photoshop will work.
